Gewinnspiel zum Kinofilm von Eric Cantona machen dürfen. Sein neuer Film „Looking for Eric"
spielt er sich selbst und versucht einem gescheiterten Fan das Leben auf seine Art und Weise nahe
zu bringen. Der Film des britischen Meisterregisseurs [.

Movies and soccer. Two things that traditionally don't mix well. In documentary form, maybe. But in
scripted Hollywood form? No. For various reasons, it usually ends in either cheesy emotions,
unconvincing action, or Robert Duvall's Scottish accent in A Shot at Glory. But not always. There
are a handful of good football movies out there.

Karyn Kusama's (gorgeous) film Girlfight climaxes with a "gender blind" boxing match, in which the
film's central character gets into the ring and boxes her boyfriend. This has got to be one of the
most fascinating scenes in a sports movie.
Before I go any farther, let me just say that the New York State Boxing Commission has never
authorized gender-blind boxing for men and women in the same weight class.

Dirty, dirty Leeds. Dirty fucking Leeds. After reading David Peace's novel The Damned UTD these
words cycled through my head for days. They work as an obsessive refrain in David Peace's account
of Brian Clough's infamous 44 days as the manager of (dirty, dirty) Leeds.
I knew nothing about Clough, Leeds, and this bizarre story before reading Peace's novel - that I
enjoyed the book, and felt as if Clough himself, in all his puerile genius, had wormed his way into
my head is as good a testimony as I can give to the intensity and distinctiveness of Peace's
writing.

Im nigerianischen Film sieht es bei Chelsea gegen Liverpool zum Glück anders aus als im
Sportfernsehen, aber einmal könnte man sich dieses cineastische Meisterwerk sicher ansehen.
Richard von the Spoiler würde dafür sogar seine Ersparnisse und Kinder geben.

I screened a short documentary called "Kick Like a Girl" a couple months ago and was delighted
to find out that HBO is airing it tonight (6:00 ET). Anyone who sometimes feels jaded by the
state of sports these days needs to tune in to the adventures of the Mighty Cheetahs, a
third-grade girls' soccer team in Salt Lake City.

Emir Kusturica'dan Maradona belgeseli. Belki de izlemişsindir.. El Diego'nun
hayatının sadece futbol bazlı değil, her açıdan ele almaya
çalışan bir eser. Hayatı film gibi denilen bir adamın hayatının
filmi.

Bir itirafa konu edilebilir mi bilmiyorum; dün akşam Recep İvedik'e gittim.
Üstelik çok da güldüm. Beklentiyle ilgili bir şey herhalde, beklentiyi
düşük tutunca, hatta hiç beklentin olmayınca yakaladığın
birkaç küçük parçadan bile haz alabiliyorsun. Filmin bir dünya
eleştirilecek, kimi yerlerde ti'ye alınabilecek noktası var, aşağıda
konuşuruz seninle.

Green Street Hooligans'ı izlemişsindir, TV'de bile oynadı. Gerçi dublaj ile
aynı tadı vermiyor haberin olsun. West Ham United taraftarları ile Milwall
psikopatlarının ilişkileri ekseninde Ada'daki futbol, holiganizm ve tribün
gruplarını konu alan enfes bir filmdi. En son acıklı bir noktada
bırakmıştık Green Street Elite'i.

Joe Cole dizini sahada bırakıp, sezonu kapattı. Haziran ayında Milli Takım
forması ile Kazakistan ve Andorra maçlarına yetişmesi bile zor
gözüküyor. Sahaya çıksa bile nasıl toparlayacak merak konusu.
Chelsea, İngiliz oyuncunun yerine adam arayadursun, Cole Londra'da ameliyat oldu.
Fotoğraf ameliyat sonrası ilk fotoğraf olup, Chris Wilson / Mirror'a aittir.

Cem Yılmaz
eylemişse güzel eylemiştir diyerek gittim filme.
Çekimler, kullanılan efektler ve espiriler süper. Hele hele bir futbol seyircisini
filmin ikinci yarısı mest edebilir. Futboldan anlamadan bu kadar güzel doneler
yakalayarak bizi güldürmeyi başaran Cem Yılmaz bir de futboldan anlasa neler
yapacak demek ki!

Yönetmen Serdar Akar'ın çektiği, başrollerinde rahmetli Savaş
Dinçel, Müjde Ar, Rafet el-Roman ve Erkan Can'ın olduğu nefis bir futbol filmi.
Hayat ile futbolun gösterdiği paralellikler, Sait Faik'in öykülerinden
alışkın olduğumuz insanların gündeliklerinde karşımıza
çıkıyor.

I've been dreaming for the great one to journey to my hometown of Portland, Oregon, for many...
well, two years now. Not as a member of my club the Timbers, not in the flesh, but in 24-frames per
second. Moving pictures... in the hyper-reality of cinema... in the celluloid guise of the
brilliant film Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait.

Why is this brilliant film still not available on DVD in the U.S.? If we can take down Uwe Boll, we
can surely get this released in Region 1!

el caso es que en el mundial Japón y Corea 2002 me toco ver el poster. Era algo similar a la foto,
solo que esta foto es de un jugador de la India , que estaba filmando una película, quiero creer
que similar, solo que en su país y en el tan famoso Bollywood.

From BBC comes this report that LA Galaxy defender and man of brightly colored hair styles is going

Any guesses which other Galaxy players may appear in film soon?
